I see KC with 40 but Oaktown with 36...the update will probably not happen before opening pitch for KC...I guess we go with that, but what would you do Nick if Oakland becomes start play after KC starts...should we place another 10%? may not happen but just getting a feel for all this. Thanks!
Nick, I am confused about your money mgt plan. I thought you were betting enough to make 10% of your banroll in every bet and then when you lost, you would bet enough to make up for the loss. From what I read today you are betting 10% of the present bankroll. I know this is probably a personal preference kind of thing and I have my own ideas, but just wanted to know what worked for you in the past.
Normally with a -220 average chasing a loss is possible since you only lose 25% of your bank. With yesterday's loss chasing that loss is not possible. If the system still stays at 80% the ratio of wins is still on track since I predicted 8x bankroll each month. Still 6 days to go to reach $800.
I don't know what you just said but Rookie is right bet should be 54 for 58.86 If you're posting numbers you should be consistent or explain why you changed.
Normally I would bet to win 10%, but as KC was a small dog, why not bet 10% and try to get some money back from the Oakland loss the day before. It's not written in stone to do what I do, I just post what I'm doing, everyone can do whatever they are comfortable with.
if a line is say -220 and you are betting to win %10 of your bankroll (let's say you want to win $59 with your bankroll at $590), what formula do you use to figure out how much to bet.
also if you lose a game are you doubling up just to recoup your losses or to still win an additional %10 on your original $590.
do you still do that bet every game and every side thing/how's that going

bye the way nick, you seem like a helluva guy, you always seem to get back to people right away and never have anything bad to say about anyone, wish i could contribute as much as you but my hands are so tied being at work all day i just don't have the time to do as much research as some members here seem to do so i just hop online from tome to time. i do like the looks of this star system thing you've got going here however and i like that fact that you say you can do it in 15 minutes. think i'm going to have to try it. if i make even half what you seem to be on pace to make i'd be happier than a pig in you know what! if that happens, i'm only an hour away from you, i'd have to make a point of driving down just to buy you a beer. thanks again for the help, much appreciated by me and i'm sure everyone else on here.

To figure out what to bet incase your book doesn't have that option, just multiply the line by what you want to win, in today's example the bankroll is at $656 and the play is -289 you want to win $65 so multiply 65 x 2.89 for your bet amount = $187.85.
If the line is over -250 it's not worth it to chase the loss plus the profit, just in case you have a 2 day loser and there goes your bankroll. If it's less than that I will risk it, and also gain back the profit.
For the across the board I have stopped for now since the games/teams still getting into their groove, will start again on May 1.
I'm lucky I have my own business where I can work hours I need, so I'm able to spend time to do stuff on here. Come down sometime and we'll have a Sleeman's.
